    This all seems to have got a little overheated, however, I'll take the risk...

    I use a TK23S, and have done for a long time. One thing which I have found should be taken very seriously is the...

    Re: Adobe Master Creative Suite

    Not if you are only a photographer. Many photographers actually find Lightroom is all they need - not even full Photoshop.

    Re: Spot meter recommendations

    I use an older Pentax analogue meter (pre-V), and it's very viable. There are two batteries - the one for the low light scale is a standard rectangular 9V PP3 item, so easily available, and they last...

    Re: 6x9 technical camera

    I use a TK23S, and it's a very fine technical film camera - love it. But I think I would agree that it is not really suited to use with a digital back, despite the images in the brochure.

  8. Re: shimming a linhof TK ground glass - front-focus correction

    Adjustment on the TK ground glass is carried out by shimming alone - the screws are not adjusters. In principle there is a spring which pushes the GG forward, and it's position is fixed by the...
  9. Re: Schneider & Rodenstock standard lens recommendations for 6x9

    Rodenstock Apo-Sironar N - very nice & predictable, and allows a pretty good amount of movement. I understand it is a Planar-type design rather than the Tessar-type which Schneider use, which suits...

    I am both a photographer and architect, and I've been using a Linhof Technikardan S23 for about 12 years. I love this camera - TKs suit me perfectly - but have some observations:
